Are you creative? Are you interested in fashion? Are you really good at data entry? If you can answer yes to all three of these questions I have good news! Van Dyne Designs is looking for a paid intern!

Okay, so I've seen some posts floating around here about people having dreams of another life. I just wrote it off as some sort of group hallucination or something of the sort, but now I've actually experienced it. And all I can say is it's incredible how real they seem, how true, how much like a memory they feel like. I both love and hate it. Waking up after one of them is horrible, bbecuase coming back to reality after a dream like that sucks. it really does. I was actually brushing away tears when i woke up from the dream.

I'm not one of those women who considers Cosmopolitan to be the Bible, but I do find myself agreeing with parts of this article. You're damn right I'm going to make sure no one is storing nude photos of me on their phone. I know technology. I know how easy it is to hack a phone.

Hello. I am Milady. I am new to the Orange County and am looking for work. Also I am looking for somewhere better to live as my current place of residence is a motel room. I need something more peramanent.

Alright~! Helllo, Orange County! Anyone out there tired of Dreams, weird storms, and boring days? Well, this next weekend, the fabulous Harleen Quinzel and Helena Wells are celebrating their upcoming nuptials with a come one, come-all party! It'll be held at Festival Park at [address], this Saturday, the 16th of January. All who come in peace and frivolity are welcome.

There will be tents, drinks, live music, and some firepits where food will be roasting.

That's right. Free food, music, and drinks, as long as you act respectfully.

So, what do you think, OC? Ready to party and help these two celebrate a new beginning?

You'd think, normally, that with a new year comes a new me! Well, I like the old me so that's not going to change that much, but what the old me does, now that's something that can change. At least a little.

Van Dyne Designs will be doing something a little different this year. Every month in 2016 we'll be running an amateur design contest. There'll be money prizes and at the end of the year we'll put all 12 winning designs into one final contest, with the winner earning a paid internship at my company! It'll be loads of fun!

And one more, unrelated thing.

I want to do a superhero roll call. You know who you are, but I don't!

[Detective Orcot]I did not know you were a member of this network. As it is, I have found some information if you still wish to meet. I have been informed to make clear this would be a professional dinner as there might have been miscommunication.

My dream co-workers have apparently taken an interest in my love life. One of them kept trying to set me up with random guys at this retro bar, and then called me picky when I didn't want anything to do with any of them. They just weren't my type, but apparently I'm a sucker for guys that 'lack' confidence and say champagne wrong.

Note to self, pity sex is not the way to go and never date a dude that calls himself The Zapper.

My dreams are starting to make more sense. Which is sort of hilarious, because by making more sense they actually make no sense. At all. Ever.

I got busted out of jail by ants. I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried. Then it turns out that the guy who got the ants to break me out of jail is actually super impressive scientist and recluse Hank Pym (big deal in my dreams, seriously, if I wasn't focused on the whole ant thing I might have fangirled a bit). Turns out he wants me to use his suit to get another suit to stop this guy from essential world domination. Ask the Avengers, I say. Screw that, he says.

Oh yeah PS. I guess I'm a part of all you people who dream about the Avengers.

Well that was a disappointing meeting yesterday. "Your module proposal was rejected because the chosen literature does not meet the requirements for an advanced course."

Then again, the ridiculous requirements and emphasis on test scores and not learning probably have something to do with that. I mean, Chinboy and i have had this conversation before, on what constitutes a 'classic' or why other books are considered to be one or the other. I would think that challenging ideas or looking at themes in a new way and how they can help shape us would fall into the whole idea of expanding knowledge and personal growth. There is more than just ticking off certain books on some arbitrary list if you ask me.

One thing has become absolutely clear to me since I've started dreaming: it doesn't matter what world you live in, whether it's this one or the dream one, the world is a terrible place. I don't mean to say it's inherently evil. It isn't. It's just nature not giving a damn, and that's fine; yet, when you include humans, or any humanoid creature for that matter, that nature becomes manipulated into something terrible.

Most will argue that there is plenty of good in this world, we just don't get visions of it on the news like we do the violence--but why is that? It's because violence sells, and why is that? Because maybe, while nature in and of itself isn't inherently evil, humanity is? There is so much wrong with this world, and we create our laws and justice system to fight it, but I find too often that justice isn't handed out. Justice is a thin shield that protects only a few and fails in so many more ways. That's not an insult to the police, or the military; I was military, I get fighting for justice, yet even I, as a Vet, still understand that not everything I fought for... was in the name of a better world. Maybe me, personally, but not my missions, not my government.

Why do I bring this up? Because I'm struggling to understand... is there a real thing such as justice, and at what point is it necessary for us to take it into our own hands?

I went out and got a puppy this morning. I was driving home from the grocery store, and saw a sign saying that the animal shelter got some puppies. I swung by, thinking I just take a look, and, well...

Okay. So I've been in the OC for a little while now, and I've never really gotten around to introducing myself on this thing. Anyway, I'm Donna Troy. I'm from New York City, and I moved to Newport Beach about a year ago. I own a photography studio, Donna Troy Originals, and I've managed to do pretty well with it since moving out here. But, I could really use some more friends. So...hi, everyone.

You know how sometimes you're all balls to the wall about saving money? Yeah, today wasn't one of those days. I found the cutest pair of shoes - there are fucking mermaids on them - and just went for it. Do I need another pair of heels? Nah. Did I get them? Hells yeah.

Now I just gotta find a place to wear these bad boys. And people who won't mind me being five inches taller all of a sudden.

I definitely had some messed up dreams last night. Not as messed up as what some of you people talk about here, but. Messed up for me. I definitely stole burgled a company and I definitely went to prison for it. For three years. Three years for trying to help the little people.

Not gonna lie, it was sort of a big deal. Except for when I did this satellite interview with some blonde named Christine Everhart and I got tased. Unfairly tased. Is it weird I can still feel the shock?

What better way to brighten up your life this summer than with a beautiful bouquet of flowers?! I know, I know, this is pure shameless advertising ... Heheheh. ^_^; But seriously, come over and visit me!

It is well overdue I introduce myself here. Hello, I cannot say I am very new now, but the case somewhat applies. My name is Ororo Munroe. I have not decided the ideal things to post on here, but I have enjoyed glancing at some entries. I have not paid careful attention, however, which I intend to remedy in the future. As I understand it, many UC Irvine students fraternize on here. Is this the case?

There's going to be a meteor shower tonight! According to my research the best time to watch it is just a few hours before early sunrise. I usually don't stay up so late but... oh well, what's the harm? It is an uncommon celestial occurrence after all. There's something so peaceful about looking up at the stars. I always seem to wonder what it's like out there.

Ooh, I hope I can find a good spot to watch it! Somewhere not too well let... And I'll need to take my binoculars... Oh I suppose I should bring Skippy along too, although he'll probably just sleep through it all...

There's a meteor shower tonight, the Delta Aquarids apparently. Seeing as it doesn't seem to be related to the end of the world or anything, I might go out on the roof and enjoy it for a bit. Would anyone like to join me?

Hello, folks! I'm Janet Van Dyne, the mind behind the fashion juggernaut that is Van Dyne Designs. And to celebrate a fantastic year, next month is going the first ever Van Dyne Designs charity fundraiser! Forty-five percent of all sales will go to local women's shelters and other charities, and I'll be hosting a gala to drum up even more money from the rich and fabulous. You know you want to open your pocketbooks. It's for a good cause!
